He governs the "Eight Great Cold Forests" where the corpse is abandoned and protects those who practice uncleanness in the corpse forest. According to legend, the Eight Great Cold Forests are the places where the lotus born to form the eight great Heruka deities, namely the tyrannical cold forest in the east and the cold cold in the north. Forest, the West King Kong Flame Cold Forest, the South Bone Lock Cold Forest, the Northeast Crazy Laughing Cold Forest, the Southeast Auspicious Cold Forest, the Southwest Dark Forest, and the Northwest Chirp Cold Forest.
The Tibetan Buddhist Tripitaka Tantra records that the corpse forest master lives in the corpse city of skeletons. There is a corpse forest skull palace and a lotus flower sun wheel seat in the city. The corpse forest owner and his wife stand hugging and standing on the seat cushion. The corpse lord in the thangka is usually shown as two white skeletons standing in an embrace, with five skull crowns (that is, five small skulls) on top of their heads, in the midst of raging flames of prajna, waving bone rods, aquariums, etc.; using skulls to express impermanence Emptiness, the horrific appearance of the skull destroys hatred.
ABOUT Thokcha -Thunder Iron
Thokcha (Tibetan: ཐོག་ལྕགས, གནམ་ལྕགས) are tektites and meteorites which serve as amulets.Typically high in iron content, also called Thunder Iron,Cold Iron.These are traditionally believed to contain a magical, protective power comparable to Tibetan dzi beads. Most thokcha are made of a copper alloy.
Thogchags or Thokcha are worn as amulets by Tibetans, specifically people of the Himalayan regions, for spiritual protection and healing. Created in several forms, they often depict tantric deities, sacred animals, auspicious symbols, and mantras. Many represent ritual supports such as a mirror, phurba, or vajra. Some pieces may be abstract in nature, and the meaning of the form has since been lost in antiquity. Further research is still in the process. Other Thokcha were simply used as ancient arrow points, buckles, body armour, or even old horse trappings.
